Rain Bird ESP9V1 9 Volt Battery Operated Controller

Manage irrigation reliably in locations without AC power using the Rain Bird ESP-9V Battery-Operated Controller. Engineered for durability and ease of use, this controller is built to withstand wet, dirty, and demanding environments thanks to its IP68-rated waterproof case, making it perfect for installation directly in a valve box. Operating for over a year on a single 9-volt alkaline battery or more than two years with two batteries, the ESP-9V offers a convenient and long-lasting solution for isolated or power-restricted sites.

Programming the ESP-9V is straightforward with its large LCD screen and simple, icon-based interface. It offers sophisticated scheduling features uncommon in battery-operated units, including 6 start times per zone, 4 watering day options per zone (custom days, cyclical, ODD, EVEN), manual watering capabilities, and a dedicated rain delay button. Contractor Default allows for easy saving and restoring of custom schedules. Designed exclusively for controlling valves equipped with Rain Bird latching (DC) solenoids, the ESP-9V provides dependable automatic irrigation wherever you need it.

Easier to Program. Common programming features are easily accessed on one screen, making programming quick and easy. The LCD screen is 85% larger than the Hunter® Node and the programming icons are big and easy to understand. Manual watering is easy with a dedicated button.
